Collecting organizations
I strongly recommend joining the International Bond & Share Society. Please visit the organization's web at http://www.scripophily.org
site for current membership information.
Do not let the words "International"
and "Share" intimidate you. IBSS membership
in the United States is huge. In actual fact, IBSS members
call the group "America's biggest society for stock and
bond collectors." Believe me, American stocks and bonds
are a big part of global collecting, and probably much
larger than you might think.
The Society publishes its journal, Scripophily, four times a year. Practically every issue contains information about railroad stocks and bonds. Scripophily also contains numerous advertisements from dealers around the globe.
You may read a few of past articles of Scripophily by visiting dealer Mario Boone's site at http://www.booneshares.com .

I strongly recommend buying the Cox Catalog from your favorite
SCRIPOPHILY DEALERS.
If they do not yet carry, or are out of stock, you may buy directly from the author.
